Not all bug sprays are created equal.

Bug Buster™ is thoughtfully formulated to do more than “repel”—it works by interfering with the insect’s sensory tracking, making it more difficult for mosquitoes and biting insects to detect you.

At the heart of the formula is Nepeta cataria (catnip), a botanical rich in nepetalactone—a compound recognized for its ability to disrupt mosquito attraction. It is supported by a synergistic blend of essential oils chosen for their aromatic profiles that insects instinctively avoid.

Balanced in organic witch hazel, this lightweight spray applies easily, feels clean on the skin, and allows you and your family to enjoy the outdoors with confidence—without relying on harsh synthetic chemicals.

HOW TO USE

Mist generously onto exposed skin, clothing, and hair for full coverage.

For facial application, close eyes and lightly mist over the face from a comfortable distance.

Because this formula does not rely on synthetic actives such as DEET, reapply every 2 hours or as needed during prolonged outdoor exposure.

INGREDIENTS

Peppermint (Mentha × piperita) Organic Hydrosol, Hamamelis virginiana L. (Witch Hazel), Pogostemon cablin(Patchouli) Oil, Nardostachys jatamansi (Spikenard) Oil, Nepeta cataria (Catnip) Oil, Juniperus virginiana (Cedarwood) Oil, Corymbia citriodora (Lemon Eucalyptus) Oil, Cymbopogon citratus (Lemongrass) Oil, Cymbopogon winterianus(Citronella) Oil.

How Botanical Insect Defense Works

Unlike conventional insect repellents that rely on a single synthetic active, this formula uses a multi-aromatic approach.

Certain plant-derived compounds—especially those found in Nepeta cataria (catnip)—can interfere with how insects detect:

  • Carbon dioxide (breath)
  • Body heat
  • Skin-derived scent signals

This creates a form of sensory disruption, making it more difficult for insects to recognize you as a host.

The result is not simply repelling—it is reducing the likelihood that insects find you in the first place.

Botanical Intelligence by Design

Plants do not rely on chance for survival—they produce complex aromatic compounds as part of their natural defense system.

These volatile compounds help protect the plant from environmental stressors, including insects, microbes, and herbivores. The composition of these aromatic profiles can vary depending on growing conditions, climate, and natural pressures, resulting in uniquely complex protective chemistry.

The essential oils selected for Bug Buster™ are derived from plants long recognized for these natural defense properties. Rather than relying on a single active ingredient, this formula brings together a synergistic blend of plant-based compounds that insects instinctively avoid.

This is not simply masking scent—it is working with nature’s own strategies to help reduce the likelihood of insect attraction.
